Morningstar, Morrowind Academy.

In the depths of the students, in the Jorlu Green, there is the Forest Laboratory.

It was originally guarded by cardinals of the Church of the Word, but since the Morning Stars had changed their faith, they were now all servants of Garton.

Servant, of course, in the broad sense of the word. His fanatics stayed in Safron, or elsewhere.

The Soul Shaper looked to the east, as if through the layers of Jorugreen foliage, to see the statue standing in Liberty Square.

"That's what Garton left behind." Mu Yan added.

"That's a good boy, remember Canlosh. I thought he had forgotten. Old Pa muttered.

"After all, it is the person he chooses is also a believer in a sense." Mu Yan whispered, and the two of them went straight into the room where Huai En was recuperating.

The guards ignored the intrusion of the two men, and the will of the Soul Shaper penetrated through their skins and into the depths of their hearts, suggesting that there was nothing in front of them.

Wynne was no different from the last time they had seen him, his lips were gray and thin, except that his hair and beard had been trimmed, and he lay quietly on the bed, his eyes still closed.

"Can you try to wake him up?" Mu Yan asked.

The Soul Shaper stepped forward and put his hand against Wynne's forehead.

As if sensing something, two rays of light crawled out of Wynne's forehead like a snake, one black and one white, entangled in Lao Pa's arm and kept going upward.

The white clings to his arm, full and growing, but the black bites on the white body, as if taking a big bite of strength from it, and the two begin to grow in tandem.

The Soul Shaper let go of his hand, and the power instantly retracted.

He shook his head, "I can't tell the difference between my power and that of Alduin, they are one in themselves" He looked at Mu Yan, "You can." ”

Mu Yan thought thoughtfully, "Because of that scale? ”

"Indeed, let it be a medium, you can take it away, and then I will keep him alive. But doing so only strips away one of the elements that prevents him from waking up, and does not ensure that he will definitely wake up."

"You're saying there are other reasons?"

"Maybe. You're an adult mage, and you can't hide any elemental issues from you, but you haven't noticed any signs of elemental influence on him, have you? ”

"Yes."

"So he is suppressed by things other than the elements and souls, which is beyond the scope of what we can study, why do you want to awaken this human being, is there any secret in him?"

Mu Yan was silent and held Wynne's hand.

"It's a jigsaw puzzle, and I'm a kid who collects pieces and puts them together. Now there's a vital piece of debris that I need to wipe off to see what it is. You said that Kanlosh prophesied the fate of all the gods, that Ikali returned to the elements, that you and Alduin belonged to the souls, and that he was exiled by time, but what could have such a powerful power but time to shorten the process"

He looked at Wynne.

"The clue is in him."

He recalled in his mind Wynne's phrase "We'll see you again in the next world."

After a pause, Mu Yan stood up.

"Forget it, since we can't save this old friend, let's go see the next person."

"And the sick?" The Soul Shaper was surprised.

Faced with this problem, Mu Yan was rarely ashamed.

"Well, my father-in-law's father."

Compared to Wynne, the old swordmaster's illness was very curable, and the strange soul power in his body also came from Alduin, but it was a passive soul. The soul shaper could see at a glance the origin of this injury, only the attack of the black dragon would cause such a tricky coma, but the black dragon itself was very rare, and the human research on him was almost blank, so even Mu Yan didn't know anything.

Now that the power of the black dragon has been purified by Lao Pa, he only needs to slowly warm his body to recover.

Mu Yan knelt beside the bed, holding the old man's withered hand, the wood element symbolizing life wrapped the Qiaoluge wooden bed board, and under the catalysis, countless fresh and tender plants were drilled out from the side of the bed, taking root and sprouting, flowering and fruiting, withering and decaying, and the rounds of life alternated back and forth, creating a gentle vitality field, scrambling to drill into the old man's skin, allowing him to regain vitality at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Your heart is beating fast, young man." Lao Pa joked: "You are more nervous than I am in the face of such a weak human being, and this seems to be too wasteful." ”

Mu Yan rolled his eyes, nervous and didn't want to talk to him.

It wasn't long before the Morningstars had already begun to migrate, and Edwards was the last to set off as the Guardian Family. Now that the old man has been resurrected, he is a sword saint, but after all, he has been lying in bed for decades, and it is a blessing not to die, how can he go on a long journey, and he still went to such a desolate place on the Kadra Plateau to restore his vitality instead of strength with this extravagant and wasteful method, which is enough for him to become a healthy old man and survive this migration.

That's enough.

As time passed, Mu Yan felt that the withered hand in his hand was slowly filling up, and the temperature had also recovered, so he let go of his hand.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the old man grabbed him instead!

Mu Yan was taken aback, he looked at Lao Pa for the first time, and the soul shaper who was supposed to make a hint just shrugged his shoulders, looking like he didn't think it was a big deal.

"You did it on purpose!" Mu Yan gritted his teeth.

"You shouldn't be nervous, and he can't see me." Lao Pa smiled.

The exchange between the two was completed in an instant, and the old man opened his eyes.

"Kid."

He looked at Mu Yan, a pair of purple pupils shone with the same misty color as Suria's realm, his eyes were sharp, and his wrinkled face could vaguely see the handsome appearance of his youth.

Mu Yan had no choice but to bite the bullet.

"Hello, Grandpa, I"

"Your name is Mu Yan, right?"

"Huh??"

Mu Yan was stunned all of a sudden.

"Don't get me wrong, I've heard about you." The old man said, smiling weakly.

Mu Yan was shocked: "You mean Suria?" Have you been awake all this time? ”

The old man pulled the corners of his mouth self-deprecatingly and let go of his hand.

"If that could be called awake, then it was. A person in the dark, without color, without temperature, without any sense of touch, will even forget for a moment that he is alive. At first I was expecting to hear the voice, but then I became afraid of it," he sighed, and said lightly: "You listen to people's complaints unilaterally, listen to everything gradually get worse, but you can't do anything, even if your most beloved granddaughter says goodbye to you before she runs away, you can't reach out to stop her after the most kind voice disappears, I would rather not wake up."

"But that's what kept me alive," the old man smiled, "Mia still didn't abandon me, and later, my little cutie came back, but she seemed to have another person in her heart, and she often mentioned you to me, well, very often." And it seems that from a certain point in time that I can't remember, it seems that she only has you in her heart, which makes me jealous. ”

Mu Yan scratched his face and lowered his head shyly.

"What did she say about me?"

"She said you were stupid."

“”

"Hehe, just kidding. She said that you are kind and always think about others, but rarely think that you are stupid even if you have been bullied, but she likes your kindness very much, and few people still retain this superfluous quality when they have the power of you, you are very good. ”

Mu Yan lowered his head and smirked.

"By the way, what year is it?" The old man asked suddenly.

"The 77 years of faith are coming to an end."

"Oh '77"

The old man said lightly, his voice becoming more and more as if he was digging something out of the depths of his memory

"Young man."

"Huh?"

"You're a mage, aren't you?"

"Yes, Grandfather."

"And have you ever been to a place called the Wind Firmament?"

Mu Yan raised his head suddenly.

"You"

"Answer me!" The old man said sharply, even if he didn't have any strength in his body, the sound still made him shiver.

"Yes, I did."

"And do you know a bird?" He added: "Legend has it that it is covered with white feathers, and when it flies high, its wings are wide enough to cover the sky."

Mu Yan didn't have this kind of bird in his memory, but he suddenly thought of Hedwig!

At this moment, the young scholar's heart was pounding, as if it would jump out of his throat in the next second, and he nodded mechanically, waiting for the old man's next words.

"That's you." The Rhine Sword Master grinned, "I've never believed in any bullshit fate, but this time I had to believe it too." ”

"Believe what?"

Mu Yan's voice almost trembled.

"I don't remember very well a few years ago, probably after my little cutie left home for a while, a voice other than her suddenly told me that the first person I saw when I woke up was a mage, he was both my relative and not my relative, if the faith was still there at that time, and the dusk had not yet come, I needed to tell him that the wings of the white bird can cover the sky and can also penetrate the abyss, do you know what this means?"

Mu Yan let out a long breath and suppressed his restless heart.

"I think I know. Grandfather. ”

The time mentioned by the Rhine must be 774 years in the Faith calendar! That was the moment when he came to Lokan.

At the same time, in addition to him, there was also feedback from the earth, perhaps this key piece of information was included in that moment's feedback!

As for this sentence, it couldn't be easier to understand.

Kanrosh closed the door between Heru and Lokan, and must have left a key, no doubt there was a door between the windy firmament and the dark abyss, as evidenced by the return of Surya, and now that the door was closed, the phrase implied the key!

This key is none other than the stupid bird that I got out of nowhere, Hedwig!
